• Firefox does not start on the home page. She begins the last tabs always open

  I confirmed my options are set to open Google as my homepage, but after the restart, Firefox opens to the last open tab in place. A previous, now archived, thread shared this response: try to open the user.js file. For me, it was only a single line, which was user_pref ("browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once", true);. Once I deleted the file, everything is back to normal. However, I can't understand where that file user.js is and I tried to look for it, nothing helps. Help is appreciated. Thank you.

  • The Applications tab should display all open windows, which likely will be closed. If the tab displays a Firefox window that you cannot access, could be "off screen".
  • The processes tab will initially list firefox.exe, which should gradually free up memory and eventually disappear (for me, the time to do varies according to how long Firefox was running and the amount of memory that he used).

  I don't know what you mean by restoring to an earlier version. I wouldn't use Windows System Restore feature to do this, as it might wipe out these latest bookmarks, etc..

  Your troubleshooting information, says that there is a file user.js in your profile folder

  The user.js file appears only if you or another software created, therefore, normally, he wouldn't be here.
  The user.js file is read whenever you launch Firefox and initializes the preferences to the value specified in this file.

  Delete a possible user.js file and files numbered prefs-# .js and rename (or delete) the file prefs.js to reset all the prefs by default, including the prefs set via user.js and pref which is no longer supported in the current version of Firefox.
  
  You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

  • Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved

  Rename (or delete) the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-# .js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.

  Where can I find this option?

  There are services.sync.prefs.sync associated with which to synchronize prefs prefs and you can set the pref services.sync corresponding to false to prevent the synchronization of this preference.

• Just updated to 9.0.1 ~ home page select as about: blank & startpage in white, but he continues to open up with the page what's NEW in mozilla, how do I stop this and have empty I need?

  On top I used Firefox 9.0.1 with Windows XP Home Edition & have not so far set my preferences to start Firefox with all previous versions of blank page even tho ' is what is selected under Tools-Options-general

  Hi macanudo,.

  You should look at this article on this specific issue and Preferences not savedarticle. It could be a problem of pref.js, so the second article should fix your problem with the search bar. It should give you all the information you need!

  If this does not work:

  1. Enter about: config in the address bar
  2. Click I'll be careful, I promise you if prompted
  3. In the filter field, type Startup
  4. Double click on startup.homepage_override_url
  5. Delete the text string, and then click OK
  6. Close Firefox and reopen the window to check that it worked.

  Hope this helps!
